The Black golem is encountered during the Spirits of Elidquest. He guards the north-easternmost door in the River Elid cave and appears in front of the player, exclaiming "You may not pass!" and must be defeated using the crush attack style. Alternatively players can kick the golem if no weapon is available.

When defeated, a message in the text box says: "The Golem disappears, but will be back to defend his door."
